Agag posted:I grew up in the sticks. I remember rocking some Raiden at a convenience store, and the movie theater nearby had Galaga, but that's it. One of my first memories is of playing Galaga, on a cocktail cabinet, and the beautiful, angelic cocktail waitress who magically appeared and game me a stack of quarters when mine ran out. This was in, like, 1980 or '81, pretty sure it was before I was old enough to talk.

Adults giving me quarters when I was a kid was manna from heaven.

been playing some gradius v type-2 with the aim-able options is so friggin op i just feel dirty using it. like god drat, those bacterians have no loving chance in hell. they are simply not prepared. type-2 gives you a long laser and aim-able options. you can rotate the options while they are firing the laser and destroy everything.

Here's a cool shmup I found the other day, pretty easy, but its got some weird visuals and is synced to the music, guess it was used to promote some album? Hell if I know, I just though it was fun for an afternoon. http://lazy-brain-games.itch.io/level-2-the-virus-master

speaking of indies there is a lil shmup called Final Boss made by a two finnish ppl here http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=29058 it's still unfinished but the parts that are finished are good. it also has the thing where the second loop changes everything: bullets, enemies, traps, bonuses, graphics, backgrounds, bosses, and music.

Is luftrausers a euroshump? It's kind of a shmup but it's weird. It has a sneering Aryan on the cover like euro board games.
